After completing the free "Primula" demo version, you will be able to see the keywords in Extra mode.
Enter the keywords in the "Romp of Dump" and you will receive a collaboration item related to "Primula".



When you present a collaboration item to a scum prisoner, you will be able to watch a limited episode.
The collaboration item will not be lost even if you use it, and you can present it as many times as you like. Enjoy the reactions of all the scum prisoners!

The English version of Primula was released at the same time as the collaborative event was implemented.
We hope that all observers and people from overseas will enjoy it.



Penalty game for everyone, including As: "Where are you from?" has been added.
It will be released when you play a lot of mini-games, so try to ask the roots of the scum prisoners!


May 19 is the birthday of Drake, the dealer known as "Little Draco".

I am implementing a special event that will allow you to celebrate his birthday!
It will occur for one day only, from 5/19 0:00 to 23:59, so please log in on that day as well!

• A collaboration event with the previous "Primula" event was implemented.
  
• A one-day "Drake's" birthday event was added on May 19.
  
• Happy Birthday!" from Drake's penalty game to view the limited episode.
  
• A new penalty game, "Where are you from?" has been added for all characters.
  
• Added credits to the performance at the beginning of the tutorial.
  
• Icons are now displayed for clickable words in the Tips feature.
  
• Other minor bugs and typos have been fixed.
  

[h3]Observers, it's time for the Scum Prisoner's Birthday event![/h3]
Louq's birthday event is happening on Thursday, 4/4 from 0:00 to 23:59!

Try to beat him in a mini-game and choose "Happy Birthday!" in the penalty game!
The rules of the Dump are to celebrate with a penalty game!



This snapshot was taken in "Photo Mode", which animates in Live2D, implemented in the Early Access version.

Purchasing the collection item "Kids Camera" in the "SHOP" will unlock Louq's photo mode.
Purchasing the "Photogenic Frame" item will also add a decorative frame for Louq's birthday!

↓Please share your screenshots taken in photo mode or at birthday events with the community!

Your posting will help motivate our developers!
(Please do not post anything that will spoil the story.)


Present the new item "Birthday Cupcake" to Louq and you will see a special conversation and his liking will be greatly increased.
If you raise the liking of the scum prisoner to 100, a friendship event will also occur where you can get a collection item as a proof of friendship. Why not take this opportunity to deepen your friendship with Louq?

Your and the prisoner's birthdays are determined by the time set on your device, not by the local time in Japan.
If you miss an event this year, you will be able to see the same event again next year on the same date with the same content.

[h3]Today is exactly two months since the release of the Early Access version.
I was able to surpass 15,000 downloads in 53 days (as of 3/13/2024) since the release![/h3]

Thanks to some observers who continue to play, I am motivated to update!

The next update will be a little later, but we are also planning to hold a birthday event for Louq on April 4.

There will also be a log-in bonus, so please take your time and enjoy the life of a scum prisoner being punished at your own pace!



An interview with developer Zakroske was featured in Game Creators Guild's "Hang out in the creator's dressing room"!

Dear observers, I am very sorry for the wait.
Not only have we added a new main scenario, but we have also made system modifications to make the game even more pleasant to play!



Unravel the evil deeds of the "Vamp of Dump," a serial killer who falsely accused the protagonist, As!

A new main scenario, the "Vamp of Dump Case Ⅰ", and case documents available at the library event will be added.

Unlike the prisoners' main scenario, "Confession of Crimes and Repentance Ⅱ", there is no game over in this episode, but it branches off into multiple (10 in first episode) "hypotheticals" depending on the choices.
You can choose any of the options and each play is short, so you can read it quickly, or you can go around and collect the branches. This is a consideration-specific episode!



Rewards from the repost campaign conducted from 2/10 to 2/29 will be distributed to all players!

🔁101 reposts x 1 chip
🎨7 pieces of fan art x 10 chip
🎬Live game streaming by 4 people x 10 chip
[h3]A total of 【Chips x 211】 will be given to all players🎁[/h3]

[h3]《Distribution period: 3/9 (Sat) 0:00 - 3/31 (Sun) 23:59》[/h3]
Rewards will be distributed as a limited-time login bonus, so please remember to start the game to receive them!



The loading time when starting up the game will be greatly reduced to 1-2 seconds, and a progress bar will also be displayed.
The bug that caused a force close alert to appear when clicking during loading is also resolved.


The circle logo for "Zakurosuke" & "Zakurobento" was designed by Teoh.
Thank you for the great design!

In addition, the rules for mini-games will be modified to be more similar to actual casino games.

• In the mini-game "Blackjack", A (Ace) is now automatically treated as 11 points.
  
• In the mini-game "Poker", when two players have the same hand, the ranking is determined by comparing numbers and suits.
  

April 4 is the birthday of Louq, the outlier (good man) in a group of freaks.

I am implementing a special event that will allow you to celebrate his birthday!
It will occur for one day only, from 4/4 0:00 to 23:59, so please log in on that day as well!

• In the mini-game "Blackjack", A (Ace) is now automatically treated as 11 points.

Please add us to your wish list!

This game uses many of the techniques developed in the development of "Romp of Dump", including Live2D, game systems, and scripted direction.

I would be very happy if those who have become fans of "Animaroid Girl" would also become aware of the existence of "Romp of Dump" and support it with us.
